Whewww back at work one day and it was a Ling one . 8am until 8pm . Consequently didn’t do much today other than work. So not much to record . One cool thing just happened .. I noticed that the rain on our ur webcam did a cool thing with the lights from the candles in our windows

Three friendly spirits guarding the house !

I feel safer already!

Nite all, nite sam

There’s a ring around the moon tonight… Really. It’s amazing.  Seen here over the house with its new color lights. 

Ieminds me of that great elephant rival song “ring around the moon”

t’s funny because later tonight there’s a partial lunar eclipse… But it’s gonna be too cloudy to see.

Earlier in the day ‘Diane and I went up the other side of Bolton Valley to Bryon Lodge and then up and over heavenly Highway and down wilderness. It’s still winter up there… Even though all our snow is gone down here

Great end to a great day.. and a great week off.. tomorrow’s back to work… Do I remember how to do that?

Very quiet day around here… First day in a week that we didn’t climb Bolton.… I did get out for a nice run Between the raindrops.

Did lots of fun technical projects this weekend .. for Gizzos handy things done . He worked on them today and sent me these pictures… Still a work in progress

I also got some computer controlled lighting for the front of the house for the holidays.

The WebCam doesn’t do them justice because it uses infrared at night. Suddenly nice and colorful

I can use our Alexa to change them up… Where they are at full brightness…

Also made some good progress on the first robot and building… Thanks to my friends Douglas and va

OK time for bed

I woke up this morning thinking that today should be called “You’re welcome day”… The day after Thanksgiving. Just like we have boxing day after Christmas.

It would be a day that we are told everyone we appreciate it being tight… OK… A dumb idea I know. But I’m so relaxed from taking the week off that’s where my mind went yeah I mean like not much to report today. Finished a few projects around the house… And we did our seventh day in a row hike up Bolton.… It’s been really fun Doing the mountain that many days in a row. I’ve seen all sorts of crazy weather just in seven days. Rain, snow, sun.

Will have to stop hiking because supposedly Bolton’s opening soon… That they’re going to have to get a lot more snow to make that happen

Trying to think of what else happened today.… We did have a great zoom call with our friends Lia and Larry in Pittsburgh. It was so great catching up with them.

Then we did an online escape room thing designed by one of ‘Kyle’s families friends.… It was all math themed and pretty complicated. It was really fun

Yes that’s it for the day. Little common boring… Suits me just fine

Nite all, nite sam
